About BCRI

BCRI
Inc., d/b/a BCRI Valuation Services is
a consulting and research company founded in 1998 by Stephen L. Barreca.
BCRI specializes in assessing technological change and appraising utility
and high-tech property.

The convergence of computer and communication technology
and their unprecedented rapid advancements are greatly enhancing humanities
most defining attributes: communications and cogitation. While the consequences
to business and society have been overwhelming in the 20th Century, history
will credit it only for opening of the door to the Information Age. As
we journey into the next millennium, we will experience the full extent
of the Information Age. Those that embrace it will do well; those that
resist it will struggle for existence; and those that proactively anticipate
the changes will excel.

BCRI can help you anticipate the changes and excel in the Information
Age. With over 30 years experience in telecommunications, and over 24
years experience in depreciation analysis and forecasting technological change
and functional obsolescence, BCRI has the skills
to assess your technological strengths and weaknesses. We can assess the
pace of change and document the technology life-cycles that sustain your
markets and your business. We can assess the potential of future "killer
technologies" that may one day threaten your success, or assess the
economic lives and value of your assets.

Stephen Barreca has extensive experience in the areas of
depreciation and valuation theory and practice. With specialties in
ad valorem taxation, he has conducted or managed valuation and
economic life studies of various type of personal property with an
aggregate value in excess of $350 Billion dollars. He has
worked along side some of the largest corporations in the world as
well as state governments and local taxing authorities in both the
US and Canada... more
